Ubuntu 20.04

[nickwebha]

Been using this a lot (great work, by the way). I upgraded to Ubuntu 20.04 and now I am getting /usr/bin/env: ‘python3.7’: No such file or directory.

Fix on the way?

Thanks, @nickwebha!

For now, Ubuntu 20.04 is not tested, but I'll take a look, hopefully, this week.

Hi, any progress to make 20.04 PPA available?

[karawitan]

Working flawlessly on Ubuntu 20.04 with Python 3.8, as you can see below (patch included ^^)

kalou@shinwey:~/gitfs$ ./build/gitfs -v

Thanks for the response!

A few things:

• The PPA does not support focal so I had to change it to eoan.
• When I try to run gitfs from the PPA I get:

Really not sure what I am doing wrong here.

[karawitan]

@nickwebha the "pip" targets are broken, please use the following commit as well https://github.com/karawitan/gitfs/commit/978dda64e111df789cf5c9b476b2d4d1c679f448

[The-Inamati]

Please can someone help me get this running on ubuntu 20.04? I really need this to work.

[gioppoluca]

A working version for 20.04 or most recent ubuntu versions could be usefull

[pmcdonald-metropolis]

Any update?

[ser]

Now the update rather to 22:04 is required...

[nickwebha]

I check this repository and issue every few months. Very sad to see the project die like this because it was great. If I knew Python I would fork it but I really do not have the bandwidth for that right now. I am now on 22.04 (sticking with the LTS releases).

Any way, still hoping for a modern update! :) Be well.
